I would be cautious of firing an injector spuriously in open space. If you're supply the 1300 bar plus of fuel pressure then you basically got a hydraulic cutter on the loose if the thing opens. CD diesel systems have been known to bore holes in piston crowns in the unlikely event that an injector does stick open.
